Here's how the node docs work.
Each type of heading has a description block.
## module
Stability: 3 - Stable
description and examples.
### module.property
* Type
description of the property.
### module.someFunction(x, y, [z=100])
* `x` {String} the description of the string
* `y` {Boolean} Should I stay or should I go?
* `z` {Number} How many zebras to bring.
A description of the function.
### Event: 'blerg'
* Argument: SomeClass object.
Modules don't usually raise events on themselves. `cluster` is the
only exception.
## Class: SomeClass
description of the class.
### Class Method: SomeClass.classMethod(anArg)
* `anArg` {Object} Just an argument
* `field` {String} anArg can have this field.
* `field2` {Boolean} Another field. Default: `false`.
* Return: {Boolean} `true` if it worked.
Description of the method for humans.
### someClass.nextSibling()
* Return: {SomeClass object | null} The next someClass in line.
### someClass.someProperty
* String
The indication of what someProperty is.
### Event: 'grelb'
* `isBlerg` {Boolean}
This event is emitted on instances of SomeClass, not on the module itself.
* Modules have (description, Properties, Functions, Classes, Examples)
* Properties have (type, description)
* Functions have (list of arguments, description)
* Classes have (description, Properties, Methods, Events)
* Events have (list of arguments, description)
* Methods have (list of arguments, description)
* Properties have (type, description)
# CLI usage
